Does using this player not impact thier budget?
Jeff said it does. It's why they tried JustinTV beforehand.

I have a evil money grubbing idea that might save GB some bucks.
All premium live shows are now free for all and as such are streamed over Twitch, but the achieves are premium members only.

Giant Bomb Unplugged returning early next year, January sometime. Woo!

The new player is the CBSi player, it shouldn't affect their budget too much I would hope.

They have to foot the bill for the bandwidth now though, as opposed to twitch.

Wait, is that why Gamespot itself uses Twitch?
So how the heck does Twitch make money off of CBSi?!

well twitch uses GB's game database so maybe it was some kind of mutual arrangement
They also run ads during the streams.

I seriously doubt that's the case

I wonder if what connection they might have through Jared.
Oh yeah, did that Totalbiscuit thing happen, or was there not an episode today?

Twitch definitely uses GB's data for stuff. Jeff also said so during a podcast or something.
No episode today, totalbiscuit on monday.

JC2 multi on Unpro is fucking hilarious.
All your suggestions seem to come back to you being too cheap to sub
Seriously though, if Justin is crap then people will complain - free or not.
GB hosts gigabytes of video every week. I doubt a few hours of streaming makes much difference to the budget.

I remember talking to Jeff over twitter about the potential for people to take advantage of their relaxed, unstructured style to promote their game. He said they're always very selective about who they let on their content, and anyone pitching game coverage has an uphill battle, but they will take a chance on some unproven people.
I doubt we'll see Rich Gallup on UPF or the Bombcast again.

I can 100% guarantee Rich Gallup will appear on GB many more times in the future
Haha, really?
I think you're overinterpreting the situation.

So it'll be just like when Giant Bomb cut ties with Dave Lang after all those times he was promoting Wreckateer and Dive Kick, right?

Exactly. Thank God Jeff took a stand after he kept showing up at their panels to push his flash games.
It is just the way Rich is. He appears infrequently but is a bit of a shill when he does. Last time I remember he was at E3 shilling an iphone game. He had recently being laid off so people let him go on way too long.
It is okay. People call him on it but - like Lang - it is worth a little shill to have them on.
Anyhoo. Enough of that nonsense. This is the weekend goddammit and I am bored. Time for CreepyGAF question of the week.
Which GB members do you think are gun owners?
Jeff is almost certain.
Brad - with is almond/soya milk and kale salad - I am guessing not. But then he is southern ...
Vinny seemed like he was only half joking about that shotgun in his bug out bag.
What about Patrick? He did live in a bad neighbourhood but seems like a dedicated pacifist. What if it was someone being mean to someone in the LGBT community. I think he might shoot them then, in the arm at least.
Drew. He is a strange one. I think he might hunt you with bow and arrow just for the sport. Unless his programming prevents him from hurting humans.

Vinny strikes me as a politically liberal, I can definitely see him being wary of gun ownership.
What.

Okay we get it. Weekend gb thread sure is goofy! Come on already.

I can't tell if this is a joke or not. Do you know who Rich Gallup is?
Hasn't Jeff mentioned owning a gun, actually?
Done filming, but it's the editing that takes forever.
Unless they can get someone to man the control room, expect another slow week.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
VinnCo shirt has arrived! It's such a nice design.
He talked about it at the very beginning, it's some Game of Thrones Facebook game.
